24 warriors posted at what would be a record at circus Maximus for a 9/11 remembrance kettle bell beatdown.
A few comments and mumble chatter to start the day and of course an expertly planned set list for our patriotic themed rendition of 2,200 stairs to ascend with your bell. Some cadence chatter got us all in the mood ( never could time it right) but we move anyway!
History:
AA 11 – hit the wtc first
UA 93 – fought back and crashed in Pennsylvania
AA 77 – crashed into the pentagon
UA 175 – hit the second tower
Theme and numbers. Fire fighters ascended 2,200 stairs so we commemorate and move in remembrance of our fallen soldiers, brothers, sisters, pilots, family members and those in service.
Warm-a-Rama
25 side straddle hops
11 Don Qs
11 merkins
11 crunchy frogs
Question what were the flight numbers? Silence was the answer- read above to revisit
11 signifies the AA 11 flight that went down first
11 burpees for wrong answer.
The Thang-
Long mosey to the Godwin track with bell and we begin our ascension in style with a patriotic ensemble to push us through this beatdown .
5 excercises 11 of each then climb with your bell to the top and back.
6 rounds got us the 2,200 stairs
Excercise 1 – 11 in swings
Excercise 2 – 11 lawnmower pulls
Excercise 3- 11 suitcase squat
Excercise 4- 11 halo 😇
Excercise 5- 11 clean and jerk
Climb the stairs and rinse and repeat.
Once 6 rounds were accomplished the Q then asked the flight numbers again and 3/4 were answered. The penalty 77 curls on a mosey back to the flag.
We end with God Bless the USA and a moment of silence to Never forget.
Thanks for letting me host this commemorative beatdown.
